OPERATION

B-38

EXAMPLE 1 - 2 STEP TRIGGER: Simple operation
The simplest trigger operation occurs with a 2 Step
trigger and the Start, Crater and Burnback functions
all set to OFF. (See Figure B.19)

For this sequence,
PREFLOW:
Shielding gas begins to flow immediately when the
gun trigger is pulled.

RUN-IN:
After preflow time expires, the power source regulates
to the welding output and wire is advanced towards
the work piece at the Run-In WFS. If an arc is not
established within 1.5 seconds, the wire feed speed
will jump to the welding wire feed speed

WELD:
The power source output and the wire feed speed
continue at the weld settings for as long as the trigger
is pulled.

POSTFLOW:
As soon as the trigger is released, the power source
output and the wire feed speed are turned OFF.
Shielding gas continues until the post flow timer
expires.
